for me, it is easily Game #4 of the ALCS in 2004, the "Dave Roberts steal" game.

Probably the 2007 Superbowl with the Patriots and Giants. Just a surreal event.

It's gonna seem like an even bigger moment when Strahan is President in 20 years. At the rate he is going....

edit: Missed live...Went to a few big Celts playoff games but nothing too iconic.

Saints Vikes NFC title game.

Although I did go to the Pats/Panthers super bowl which was a bigger game but less personal to me.
Poor clock management cost the panthers that game .

Game 4 of last year's NHL WCF. Blackhawks down 2-1 in the series to Anaheim, must win game at home.

5-4 double OT win, 6 goals in a 5 minute span in the 3rd period. Hawks took 2 goal lead, Anaheim came back and scored 3 quick ones, then Kane scored one to tie it.

Took my dad to that game. Will never forget it.

Actually went to both Colts/Pats games in '04 and '05. Not sure why that didn't immediately enter my mind.

The first one Manning threw 4 INT's and the 2nd 1 the Pats won 20-3. Both snowed.

I enjoyed the 2nd 1 more probably because Ty Law was injured and that was the year Manning threw 49 TD's. The line closed like Indy -1 despite the fact NE had won like 20 straight home games.

Greatest football game of all time imo. Saints/ vikings nfc championship. They literally implemented about three or four new rules after that game.

Great game but honestly I rather watch on TV.

The NFL is so overated live.

You just can't see well
even if you have great seats.

Only exception is the Cowboys stadium . You get the atmosphere of live while basically watching the entire game on the biggest hd tv on earth

Oct 10, 1988 : MNF : Giants at Phila

This game produced one of the seminal moments in the oft-thrilling career of quarterback Randall Cunningham. On the first of his three touchdown passes against the Giants at Veterans Stadium, Cunningham rolled to his right after a play-action fake to running back Keith Byars, took a hit from Giants linebacker Carl Banks, nearly toppled over, kept himself up using his left hand and then fired a strike in the end zone to tight end Jimmie Giles.

=========================

Cunningham was so fun to watch. I remember this play and my Dad and I trying to figure out how he threw a TD. From the stands it looked like a sack. Then they showed the replay and the crowd was just so amazed.

Terps beat Duke who was #4 @ home in 2010 to basically win a share of the ACC regular season title. Greivis hit one of his classic runners late in the game when we were up 2 to seal the W
